This series features and AutoTalk allows you to answer a call by just removing the handset from the cradle so you don't have to waste time pushing buttons. Auto Standby allows you to hang up by simply returning the handset to the cradle.
To protect you against mis-billed calls that might result from your phone being activated by other equipment, this series has digital security, which automatically selects one of more than 10,00 0,000 digital security codes for the handset and base. Digital Spread Spectrum Technology uses a wider frequency band than standard digital transmissions. The result is a more secure conversation with the clarity of digital sound, extended range, and minimal interference from other cordless phones.

Push the battery pack connector into the jack until it clicks into place.
3) Make sure you have a good connection by gently pulling on the battery wires. If the connection is secure, the battery jack will remain in place.
